Top 25 Things To Do In New York
21 New York Comedy
Gerry Seinfeld, Robin Williams they all started somewhere
and still do on occasion. Somebody right now is saying he's not
as good as he was when I saw him at....and the when might not be
that long ago.
Apart from the lucky few, comedy rarely makes comedians
rich. Comedy just makes the rest of us feel happy. Comedy is one
of the most underrated of the arts.
Which club should you visit to support these struggling
performers(?). It comes down to quality of venue and admission price.
The comics pretty much tour all of the clubs. Unfunny
comics don't last long. Remember where you are. If they can make
it here..
Smaller venues might save you a dollar and give the whole experience
an edge. Personally I like the packaging of a decent club.
Either way take your
pick
Audience Participation
Remember comedy often has an element of audience participation. Don't
be reserved, it can be fun but if you are a little sensitive, self-conscious
or out with a 'personal assistant' sit away from the stage.
Talking of reserved, you should to ensure you get in.
22 (18) United Nations Headquarters
A been there done that sort of place. Worth seeing
the building and statues outside. Don't get too concerned if you
don't have the time to bring about world peace or money for a tour.
Next time.
23 Brooklyn Bridge
Walk the Brooklyn Bridge and reward yourself with an ice cream
at the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory at Fulton Ferry Landing and enjoy
the tall building view.
24 Brooklyn Botanic Garden and The Brooklyn Museum of Art
The gardens might be slightly smaller than its NYC cousins but
are non-the-less impressive.
The museum is engaging and interesting and worth a visit.
Aim for Prospect Park Station subway.
25 Skate at Wollman Rink
A great New York experience and wonderful way to enjoy the city
skyline. Just don't bump into anyone unless they are good looking
or very soft.
